Free Idlib Army

The Free Idlib Army was a Syrian rebel coalition formed on 19 September 2016 by the FSA 13th Division, FSA Northern Division, and the Mountain Hawks Brigade of the Free Syrian Army in northwestern Syria's Idlib Governorate. With a strength of 6,000 fighters (including 200 officers), the Free Idlib Army fought against the Syrian Arab Army, and it had a loose alliance with Jabhat Fateh al-Sham until January 2017, when it became enemies with the group. The Free Idlib Army is allied with Turkey, Qatar, and the United States, and it opposes the Syrian government, Tahrir al-Sham, JFS, the Syrian Democratic Forces, and the Islamic State.
